Good morning to all and welcome to
and I'm also posting to City Daily Photo
We realize success is often determined by the amount of time we put into our work but,
Why not put our emphasis on the
quality of time instead?

"Instead of that airy commotion live in the water that gently cools as it flows.
Be a helpful friend, and you will become a green tree with always new fruit, always deeper journeys into love."

By Wednesday this was our view.
Just when it was beginning to feel like spring.... old man winter strikes again.
Believe in the magic of simple, unexpected gifts.
An ordinary life can be extraordinary.
"Play to your strengths."
Smile. Snap. Share. All good words to fill your days with.
We grow and change. We get older and wiser. Let each new day bring newness. Learn something new. Share it relive it and embrace who we are a lot more than we do. Thrive. Revive.
Unfold your own story.
"Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself."
Rumi
Thank you for stopping by and gifting me with your thoughts.
Enjoy each moment and take good care of you.

Deeper journeys into love...how beautiful! Love all your little cute critters and pets too! Happy weekend!
Hello,
I hope your snow is melting. Love all the cute doggie photos and the kitty. The Peacock is always a treat to see. The bird is dressed for a snow storm. Cute photo of your granddaughter!
Great quotes and photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
What a lovely post! I love the way you've intertwined beautiful quotes with your reflections on life, and the photo of Dash just adds the perfect touch. It's so true that it's not just about the time we put into things but the quality of the time we give. Life is so much richer when we focus on the meaningful moments and embrace simplicity.
The weather shift and the reminder of old man winter’s return also seems to serve as a metaphor for life—just when things seem to settle, change comes unexpectedly, but that’s what makes it all so interesting. Your words about growth, change, and embracing the present are really inspiring. They make me think about how much we can find in the everyday moments if we take the time to appreciate them.
Thank you for sharing such thoughtful reflections!
I hope you are having a great weekend. You are invited to read my new post: https://www.melodyjacob.com/2025/03/the-breathtaking-adventures-we-had-in-glencoe.html. Thank you!
It is always so nice to read your posts and enjoy the scenes that you show us. Love that first wee bird, Karen.
What a beautiful post with beautiful animal friends! Although how my dear?
Aloha! Aloha my dear 😘 ignore the bad dictation above
I love the way you've woven together beautiful quotes, adorable critters, and reflections on life and the changing seasons.
Beautiful captions and photos.
Old man Winter hiding around the corner from me this morning. Nice owl.
The creeks will be racing to meet the rivers now.
Thank you for stopping in and leaving a comment. I think any journey is worth it and each one gifts us in some way!
Thank you Eileen for stopping in and your comment. She has had a good number of teachers in school and this art teacher was very cool. He had so much joy and enthusiasm!
Thank you, Melody, so much for such a lovely and supportive comment you are a blessing in words for all hearts and souls. One of my favorite feelings arrives after I put my posts together, through my pictures and words, meaningful quotes, it's a gift of joy for soul much needed too. Thank you for your link I shall read it next!
Thank you for stopping by and commenting, and my sweet fur ball birdy was a sweet gift!
Aloha Cloudia, and Pixie too, she always feels my heart with joy she's a sweetie. We are slowly losing all that snow, the roads opened up immediately as they do here, but it was a heavy wet snow to plow and shovel and each melting hardens overnight, and I'm not so much a fan of that! May your week ahead be comforting and a bit less stressful as it seems to be these days,
No worries I know the feeling lately; that's another reason I am gifting myself today to stay away from all of the negativity it's all so maddening!
Ah yes, I believe you are spot on and possibly the carp will be flowing in one day soon like they do. That's quite a view to witness!
Thank you for stopping in and commenting, it's a pleasure to put these posts together. Especially on days I need a lift!
Thanks you so much, each photo brings such joy as memories are a most happy journey for me,
Thank you, the owl was a gift, much like my Peacock that just wandered in one day as a young bird and so far, he's feeling safe right here. I also have to mention how much I enjoy your beautiful photos in your posts they are marvelous.
Great photos of your pets and that owl was a gift, wow!
Lovely thoughts and photos. Happiness seems so simple. All we have to do is enjoy the now. Thank you.
